posted by iclfan2Superhugh risk high reward pick in Calloway. I’m good with it tho w a 4th. Lot of media on twitter said he was a 1st round talent. Has been training with Antonio Brown and said his new daughter changed his life. Let’s hope.
Dorsey rolled the dice on tyreek Hill in KC, let’s hope this pans out like that did.
And at 175 some random wr with 30 catches in 2017. Per twitter, average tape but solid combine numbers. Whatever I guess. Clearly not impressed with the current stable.
Just took a WR out of A&M that I've never even heard of lol complete project. Has great physical attributes though.
I thought we did well in the first, took some eh questionable but I can see it/understand it in the 2nd, then went lolwut/who? in the 3rd, then a total POS in the 4th. Overall not super impressed with the draft and it was set up to be a huge homeroom.
at 33 take Landry, 35 take Connor Williams/James Daniels/Christian Kirk/Anthony Miller
3rd Round: Take Reid/Nathan Sheppard/Royce Freeman/Sam Hubbard/Orlando Brown and it's a better draft IMO. I will say, after Baker our next 5 picks were big SPARQ guys (advanced analytics) picks. the fucking DJ from Miami and the POS Callaway just scream reaches to me.
I agree with some of the above, but Calloway is only a reach if you think he won’t stay clean. Another team was going to draft him which is why we traded up, and he’s a 1st round talent athletically. That other wr that we drafted probly would have been an udfa
Interesting that they are bringing in three UDFA centers

I like our current draft better than your wanted draft. Neither of us are right yet. We have to see how it plays out.

Glad you're not the GM.

You think you're smarter than everyone. How's that "Build the O and D line!" mentality working out for us? Lol
I'll take Dorsey's draft over what you wanted.

Most posters in this thread are smarter than any GM we've had since '99. Hell if we just picked the consensus picks that the OC wanted we'd be a in a MUCH better spot than we are now. Nice logic fail.

You have a point there.
In MMQB, John Dorsey was named one of the "winners" of this draft. Also a very shitty, and disturbing, blurb on the Josh Allen tweets. Sounds like teams that wanted Allen to fall to them dug these tweets up at the 11th hour.
Not sure if you guys discussed it or not already but Twitter seems pretty certain the Browns will be on Hard Knocks this year.

Had heard this. Should be interesting.
I'd like to know who Florio's source was on this because I'm pretty skeptical. I don't take Dorsey as some who'd change his mind, last second...

No one made him send those tweets. No sympathy from me.
Feeling better & better about the Baker Mayfield pick after hearing that a bunch of teams wanted him. Sounded like the Cardinals were willing to trade up to 4, and give up a 2019 1st rounder, but the only player they'd trade up for was Mayfield.
Sounds like Haley will tailor more of a WCO to Taylor & Mayfield, which makes sense. He doesn't have the bigger, strong armed QB (TheRapist, Kurt Warner) to work with.
Sirius was talking about the Callaway pick. They said that sometimes you roll the dice on a player with off the field issue but you NEVER trade up for one. This one's a huge risk/reward type pick. Dorsey definitely doesn't have issues going after the problem children.
MMQB....A lot of Browns stuff in here. Looks like they took Ward over Chubb in that a) Gregg Williams feels that Ward's press coverage will give the DE's time to get to the QB and b) sounds like Williams is really high on Ogbah and feels he can be as good as Chubb...

I heard rumors about this weeks before the draft. I hope it is true.

Florio is normally pretty credible, but I have a hard time believing this one. If Dorsey had his mind made up 2 weeks prior for the #1 pick, I highly doubt he made a last minute change for the #4. It sounds like all of these guys in the FO spent hours to agree on one guy. I can't see Dorsey flipping the script on all of them suddenly.

No sympathy from me, because he still is going to make millions, he still got drafted in the top 10, and most importantly he isn't on the Browns roster. Other than that, LOL at anyone who legitimately got upset over a dumbass 13-14 year old's tweets. Other than Con_Alma I think it's safe to say we all have said and done some stupid shit when we were young.

I am not familiar with Callaway's story. Other than smoking the weeeedduh is there anything else that actually makes him a POS? If it's just him getting into illegal substances, then I have a hard time calling him a POS.
